The AT91-NET Ethernet card for Atmel EB40A and EB55 ARM development boards has been developed in response to customer demand for an Ethernet port on the ARM development environment
The AT88RF020 13.56MHz RFID includes an on-chip EEPROM, and can be used in applications where one or more RFIDs will be simultaneously situated within an intelligent reader/writer RF field.
Communication between the RF reader/writer and the device takes place through an anti-collision command set.
The device's 2048bit of low-power EEPROM is organised as 32 x 64bit pages, with write operations designed to finish in less than 2ms.
This highly reliable memory is capable of 100,000 faultless write cycles and data retention of at least 10 years.
The device complies with Type B operation of ISO/IEC14443 and has full ISO14443-3 anti-collision compliance.
It is supplied in a 16-pin JEDEC SOIC package.
A one-way transaction counter allows tracking of individual device usage, with the counter factory set at zero and cannot be reset.
Each device has a unique serial number.
The AT88RF020 includes an on-chip tuning capacitor enabling operation as a complete tag simply by the addition of an external coil antenna.
